Women's hockey out of Ivy race

By Brad Parks | January 18, 1994

The race for the Ivy League title in women's hockey is down to two teams - unfortunately, Dartmouth is not among them. League-leading Brown University effectively knocked the Big Green out of the championship picture with a 5-3 win over Dartmouth on Saturday at Thompson Arena. A 13-5 bombardment of Cornell University on Sunday in Hanover pushed Dartmouth's record to 7-5-1 overall and 2-2-1 in the Ivy League, but did little to help the team's chances as it now needs both Brown and Princeton to post at least three losses apiece to have a shot at defending its Ivy Championship. Brown (8-2 overall, 4-0 Ivy) thoroughly dominated Dartmouth in the first period, blasting three goals past Big Green goalie Sarah Lenczner '97 in the first twenty minutes.

By Sarah Cho | January 17, 1994

College dignitaries inaugurated the new Collis Center with a weekend of speeches and celebrations, starting with a dedication ceremony Friday afternoon. Although Collis has been open to the public for the last two weeks, Friday was the official christening of the College's first student center. The ceremony was designed to honor Charles Collis '37 and his wife Ellen, who donated $5.5 million to renovate Collis College Center, said Dean of the College Lee Pelton, who was master of ceremonies Friday night. About 80 students, professors and alumni gathered in the Common Ground to listen to Collis and his wife, College President James Freedman, Student Assembly President Nicole Artzer '94 and Board of Trustees Chair John Rosenwald, who spoke about their visions of Collis and what they think the center will mean to the student body. "This is what God would have built if he had money," Rosenwald said.

Rally urges protection of gay rights in N.H.

By Ananth Srikrishnan | January 14, 1994

New Hampshire legislators and other activists in favor of amending the New Hampshire Anti-Discrimination Law to protect the rights of gays, lesbians and bisexuals spoke to a crowd of students, faculty and area residents in a Dartmouth Hall presentation last night. The participants in the "rally" were gathering to support the New Hampshire Coalition to End Discrimination and its efforts to amend the New Hampshire Anti-Discrimination Law. The Coalition's goal is to change the law so that it prohibits discrimination in the areas of housing, employment, public accommodations and access to credit on the basis of sexual orientation. The law currently forbids discrimination on such grounds as race, color, religion and sex. Legislator William McCann of Dover is the sponsor of the amendment.

Students to see course to fruition next term

By Michelle Francois | January 13, 1994

Almost two years after they began designing a history course about refugee problems, Sabine Freizer '94 and Rebecca Eldredge '94 will have the chance to take it. Next term Government Professor Gene Lyons will teach the student-initiated course that addresses the history and treatment of refugees, reasons for migrations and the changing definition of the word refugee. "The refugee movement is a very global issue but it is not really studied in any department at Dartmouth," Freizer said. But she said the College makes it easy for students to initiate their own courses.

With community in mind, Sateia builds a future

By Laurel Smith | January 13, 1994

As the orchestrator of four years of planning and construction on the newly renovated Collis Center, Dean of Student Life Holly Sateia has worked on building a sense of College community with plaster and paint as well as through committees and coalitions. Whereas divisive campus issues can seldom be resolved in a single committee meeting or panel discussion, Sateia said she found it a welcome change to attend meetings that had a more immediate impact on the campus. "I would go to Collis building committee meetings, and we would decide to move a door or put up a window - things were very concrete," Sateia said. "I could see the impact of things we discussed right away, whereas on those other issues, you just work as hard as you can, and hope to make a difference," she said.

Lone Pine obtains liquor license

By Scott Anthony | January 12, 1994

Beer will be on tap at the Lone Pine Tavern for the first time tonight, and for now the doors are open to students of all ages. The tavern, in the basement of the Collis Center, received its state liquor license yesterday but could not serve alcohol because there was not a full staff, Collis Cafe Manager Cynthia Crutchfield said. Because of questions about the feasibility of enforcing the legal drinking age, administrators were originally not sure if the tavern would be open to all students, or just those 21 and older. But Dean of Student Life Holly Sateia said all students will be allowed into the pub as long as under-age drinking does not become a problem. "We are counting on students' cooperation," she said.
